Snow/Severe weather

How do I found out if school is open during periods of extreme weather?

When snow arrives, there is sometimes a posibility that school will have to shut to ensure the safety of the children and staff. As a fundamental principle, the school will always do it's best to remain open in order to minimise any potential inconvenience to parents.

If we have snow, and the school is able to remain open, we'll turn the heating up and do our best to ensure the children enjoy these exciting conditions! We would suggest that you send the children in with a spare set of clothing which they can use to go outside and enjoy the snow. They'll then have a spare set to change into when they come back indoors.

The school will send a text message to let you know if school is open or closed in the first instance.

To check if the school is open, please go to www.kentclosures.co.uk and type in the name of our school, with postcode CT21 4BE. You will recieve instant clarification as to if the school is open or not. You can also sign up to recieve an SMS message alert which will do the whole thing automatically, again via www.kentclosures.co.uk .
